Abstract

One of the main indicators for the well-being of older people is their quality of life. Measuring the quality of life and identifying the factors of quality of life is becoming important in order to develop adequate policies to ensure successful ageing. The aim of this research is to compare the Quality of life in the ageing people (65+) in the EU countries and to examine how the economic disparities affect the quality of life in different countries. The data used in the study are from the eighth wave of the Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe (SHARE). Several socio-demographic characteristics, self-reported household economic status, as well as the CASP-12 index (measure of Quality of Live) were explored. On a country level, there is a strong relationship between the household economic status and the CASP index, but the four domains of the CASP index are affected in different degrees. For selected countries the analysis is conducted on an individual level and the influence of the self-reported household economic status as a predictor of the CASP-12 is estimated, controlled for gender, years of education, health status, marital status and age.
不同欧盟国家的家庭经济状况如何影响老年人的生活质量?
老年人福祉的主要指标之一是他们的生活质量。衡量生活质量和确定生活质量的因素正变得越来越重要,以便制定适当的政策,确保老龄的成功。本研究的目的是比较欧盟国家老年人(65岁以上)的生活质量,并研究经济差异如何影响不同国家的生活质量。研究中使用的数据来自欧洲健康、老龄化和退休调查(SHARE)的第八轮调查。几个社会人口特征,自我报告的家庭经济状况,以及CASP-12指数(生活质量的衡量)进行了探讨。在国家层面上,家庭经济状况与CASP指数之间存在较强的关系,但CASP指数的四个领域受到不同程度的影响。对于选定的国家,分析是在个人层面上进行的,并估计了自我报告的家庭经济状况作为CASP-12预测因子的影响,并控制了性别、受教育年限、健康状况、婚姻状况和年龄。
